I've been keeping a log for about the past 12-13 seasons, and basically what DZ said is what I use the logs for. To look back on past seasons. I really never use it to "plan" a fishing trip because I just go whenever I can & try my best to coincide with the best wind/moon/tide like Bryan/RiRockhound said.

Also, obviously anyone who fishes enough will develop patterns in their head from mere memory & their favorite places to fish. However, I bet if someone who never fished studied my log (or anyone's log for that matter) they would figure out a few generally consistent patterns for where/when to fish.

That is, except for this year.
